ESA releases 1.7-petabyte Euclid dataset mapping over 900 million galaxies

The European Space Agency has published its largest Euclid telescope dataset to date, comprising 1.7 petabytes of observations covering more than 900 million galaxies across a sky area roughly 9,500 times the size of the moon as seen from Earth. The release includes over a year of observations but represents only 14% of the sky Euclid plans to survey over its six-year mission, which launched in 2023.
